Redistricting for me but not for thee


I’m sorry, but you’ve lost the plot. This does not look at ALL like AI upsizing. There is no AI noise, faces are intelligible. Hands have the right number of fingers, and are attached to people. There is no AI noise. The stars are the correct number and in the correct arrangement (see overlay below). People have a range of expressions. The framing is natural.
Additionally, it is published and credited in a major news source with long-established editorial oversight.

Not everything is AI


This kinda seems like a roundabout way of avoiding government /corporate age verification laws? Like it doesn’t require ID verification or biometrics and runs a local api to verify age.
Can someone smarter than me please explain if this is a good thing or not?


This era is such a pointless attack against the smallest niche of users. I honestly don’t get it. How much are a few techie hobbyists costing Google/Samsung’s gargantuan bottom lines? They are stepping over dollars to chase after pennies.
Just let people who want to modify their phones. It’s already prohibitively hard that no one who doesn’t have the know-how is installing their own apps outside the stores.


Great app! If there were Android TV support, I’d switch today.


Sorry, folks. We live in a country of laws and those can’t just be ignored. There is simply no way to get around the rules.


That’s already full of protestor bodies


Weird how every extremist party supports Russia, huh? Almost like extremism of any sort benefits Russian interests.


More of the typical “Arrest first, figure out the charges later” policing


Not part of the team. Like I mentioned, the AI features are not a positive for me either, but they are in line with what other apps are doing.


Thanks for letting me know. Added archive link above.


If possible, work with a therapist for this kind of support.
You can rent a roll off dumpster from your local waste management company, and remove a lot in a matter of days. But if you are living with a hoarder, then the mess will just accumulate to fill the space you clear out in a couple months.
This is not a logistical problem, but a behavioral one.


Usually it’s not exactly a speaker, but it does involve a controlled moving diaphragm. In a piezoelectric buzzer, a current applied to the diaphragm causes it to oscillate, and the size and shape of the diaphragm determines the tone AFAIK.
It may be theoretically possible to engineer such a device into a rudimentary speaker. I mean, people have done it with Tesla coils and player pianos, so hey, anything is possible?


To me, this would be like if VLC made an angry post about the evils of MP3 instead of just making a great player that can handle it (which they have). People still use VLC because we know that it will handle anything. Plus, they’ve kept the interface simple and intuitive, with most needed functions front and center, with lots of specialized features in menus and settings.
LibreOffice is losing ground because they don’t take design seriously and instead of making interoperability a priority, they would rather complain about user preferences.


I last ran serious testing a year ago. I ended up going with OnlyOffice. Despite some drawbacks, it was an easier switch that offered less friction and better file compatibility coming from MS.


As per my previous comment, it should offer reasonable use of screen space, visual hierarchy, and well-reasoned organization. Moving bad menus to a different arrangement on the screen doesn’t magically make them into good menus.
As a first step, it was a good move, although it was a decade late when it came out. They still haven’t done a major redesign another decade on.


True, but it is a purely aesthetic rearrangement of the menus. It doesn’t make it any more straightforward to navigate. Plus it doesn’t really function correctly on Windows (and it takes up just as much screen space).
It was a good step when they rolled it out about a decade ago, but they still haven’t done the work to make it better organized or show appropriate hierarchy.
Again or still?
